As The Times Argus correctly reported Monday, I was stopped by the state police and cited for careless and negligent operation of my motorcycle. I have disappointed my parents, my family, my friends and others in the community, and I am deeply remorseful for that. I also deeply regret the inconvenience which I caused the state trooper who stopped me. For this inconvenience and the disappointment I have caused, I ask for forgiveness. Thank you.
